You might not have waited long enough for replication to complete. When you connect to a back-end server with OWA, it'll redirect the URL to the correct server. Perhaps the DC it was talking to at that time still had old information.

Before moving a test mailbox, I logged into OWA from the 2003 box (http://localhost/exchange), and it promptly redirected to the 2000 box and logged in fine. Life was good. I then moved the mailbox. When I went to OWA (on the 2k3 box) again, the login box said it was connecting to the 2k box. I entered the credentials, and it immediately prompted for them again, but it now said it was connecting to the 2k3 box. I entered the credentials again, and it logged in without further issue. I did notice that if I logged in using http://servername/exchange instead of http://localhost/exchange, that it logged in correctly the first time. Only when I used http://localhost/exchange did I get prompted for credentials again. SSL & FBA aren't setup yet, but will be. I realize that this problem is probably because I had already logged onto the mailbox before I moved it. But I'm curious to know if this goes away, or did I overlook something? I just want to make sure things are working fine before tackling things on the production network. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=exchange To subscribe: http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
